Steps:
- Melt 2 tbsp of butter over medium-high heat, then add in the 1 1/2 cup of marshmallows.
- Once the marshmallows melt, add in a couple drops of red food coloring, then mix, until the mixture is completely red.
- Sprinkle in 1 1/4 cup of Rice Krispies, and fold in until everything is well incorporated.
- Butter a pan, and add the red layer. Be sure to spread it throughout, and pack it down to prevent any air pockets.
- Repeat the above steps, but don't add any food coloring - the white layer does not need any food coloring.
- Add the white layer on top of the red layer. Be sure to spread it throughout, and pack it down to prevent any air pockets.
- Repeat the above steps, adding a few drops of blue food coloring to make the blue Rice Krispies layer.
- Layer the blue on top of the white. Be sure to spread it throughout, and pack it down to prevent any air pockets.
- Let it cool down completely before cutting, and enjoy!
CLASSIC CRISPY RICE TREATS
Gooey marshmallows and crispy rice cereal come together in this recipe for the all-original favorite. We added a splash of vanilla extract and pinch of salt to give these sweet treats a palatable punch. Cut into squares, store between a few pieces of wax paper (to prevent any sticking) and enjoy for up to three days.

Steps:
- Line a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with aluminum foil, leaving a 2-inch overhang on each of the longer sides. Spray the foil lightly with cooking spray.
- Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the marshmallows and cook, stirring occasionally, until melted and smooth, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla and salt.
- Working quickly, add the rice cereal to the pot and stir with a rubber spatula until evenly coated. Transfer to the prepared baking dish and press into an even, compact layer. (Spray your hands with a little cooking spray to keep them from sticking when pressing the cereal mixture into the pan). Decorate with toppings if using (see Cook's Note).
- Let sit at room temperature until firm, about 30 minutes. Cut into 24 squares. Store the cereal treats at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
